Deliciously Corrupt
(2025)(The third book in the Truth & Temptation series)
A novel by Christin Wales
He was supposed to be a monster. My target. The final piece in a puzzle of vengeance I’d built for a year.
Lucian Voss. A morally grey billionaire with a past as dark as his empire. He was the king of the city, a ruthless man known as the "Gentleman of Vice." And I was the little mouse who crept into his tower, determined to burn him to the ground.
I thought I was the hunter. But in his world, I was always the prey.
I saw something I shouldn't have. A secret. A sin. And he caught me. Instead of killing me, he made me a deal. Six months. His personal assistant. His property.
Now, I’m his captive in a gilded cage, a prisoner in his glass-walled penthouse. He watches me. He tests me. He whispers filthy, possessive things that make my body betray me with a fire I hate myself for feeling.
This is a brutal game of forced proximity, a war of wills where he is the master and I am just a pawn.
‘You’re terrified,’ he whispers, his voice a rough growl that makes me tremble. ‘But your heart is racing for a whole other reason, isn't it?’
He’s an obsessive alpha male, and my defiance is the one thing he craves. He’s determined to break me, to corrupt me, to own me in every way a woman can be owned. He’s so much older, so much more powerful, and this dangerous age gap only seems to fuel his dark hunger.
He ruined me with his words before he ever touched me. And when he finally did, there was no going back.
This was supposed to be about revenge. But with every stolen touch, with every dark promise, the line between my hatred and my desire blurs. I came to his tower as his enemy.
Now, I’m afraid I’ll do anything to stay. Even if it means becoming his queen.
Deliciously Corrupt is a standalone dark billionaire romance with high heat, intense power dynamics, and a guaranteed HEA. This enemies to lovers story is perfect for readers who crave a possessive, morally grey hero who will burn the world down for the woman he claims.
Genre: Romance
